Overview

Peterson Elementary School is located across the street from West Heights UMC. West Heights has a long-standing relationship with Peterson, including being their safe haven in the event the school needs to be evacuated. We believe it is an important piece of our calling to serve and support our local schools. Peterson is an elementary school with a proud history and strong tradition in academic excellence and connection with the community. Peterson students work to demonstrate honorable character traits each day by demonstrating “Personal Responsibility, Respect, Integrity, and Doing our best to achieve Excellence”. On the last day of school each year, Peterson has a celebration that requires many volunteers to monitor children at the inflatables, hand out snow cones, play tug-of-war or parachute with the kids or monitor other events for the day.
